® Girl Scout
(From page 1)
The girls were in good
spirit, they had plenty of
food, and everyone was well
and healthy. Mrs. Gibble ad-
mitted later that she was glad
her husband was in camp
but declartd that he was not
particularly needed.
Despite the snow, the girls
were “chased” out doors
three or four times each day,
so, as Mrs. Gibble explained,
‘they wouldn’t go stirr crazy’.
And, actually, as one little
girl explained later, “we
had a ball.”
Although provisions held
out well, the group did use
some dehydrated provisions
— meat, beans, ham, peta-
toes, etc.
They were living in part
of the building known to
Girl Scout campers as “Fern-
dale Lodge.” and the only
real concession made to the
situation was to blot out as
much of the wind and draft
as possible.
“We put mattresses against
the window and hung blank-
ets to make things as cozy as
possible,” Mrs. Gibble ex-
plained.
But, the electric fry pan |
‘was what the party of 13 ate
out of as cooking equipment.
There was plenty of fire-
wood for the Mount
group although another set
of campers from Lancaster
lin another building was hav-
ing a shortage of that vital
supply item.
The only tie with the ‘“out-
side’’ world was the electric
line, which fed the electric
| fry pan, the transistor radio
and a telephone line which
terminated at the caretaker’s!
home, some distance away.
As far as” the 12 and 13
year old youngsters (seventh
and eighth graders. were
concerned, there was no par-
ticular concern, there was

Oscar S. Pennell, 82, of
25822 E. Eleventh St., San
Bernardino, Calif, native of
Lancaster County, and form-

1883, a son of the late John

recently.
He was a former member
of the First Church of God,
Lancaster. He was a sergeant
in Co. K. National Guard,
serving on the Mexican Bor-
der in 1916-17. He was a
member of the National As-

ployes, and was vice presi-

JOHN SMITH
John C. Smith, 88, York,

no particular emergency.
Probably, there was more of
an emergency in the homes
of their parents back in Mt.
Joy.
One thing which did “wor-
ry’ the children, however,
was the lack of information
about school on Monday. Not
realizing the full extent of
the blizzard, it was not as
apparent to the campers as it
was to those at home that
there would be no classes on
Monday.
When — via the transistor
radio — the girls learned
that Donegal schools would
be closed, all was happiness :
again.
Decision to leave camp
finally came when it became
known that additional bad
weather possibly was on its
way to southeastern Penna.
That news meant ‘‘get out.”
Arrangements were made
to evacuate. Olmsted Air
Force Base provided the heli-
copter and Monday midmorn-
ing the party including
Lancaster campers — walk-
ed about a mile to a farm
field, but at the last minute,
plans were changed.
The plane is supposed to.
carry fewer adults, but be-
cause several passengers
were smaller people, the’
plane lifted a troup of 25
out of the woods and in 15
minutes they were at the po-
lice headquarters, met by |
Lee Bates, James Heilig and
None would admit
they were “scared” by the
plane ride. Not one child or
a single adult ever. had been
in a helicopter before.

State Representative
It was my privilege to at-
tend tht Penna, Farm Show
ion the opening day. This
Show was indeed a tribute to
Pennsylvania's progress and
especially pleasing to the
residents of Lancaster Coun-
ty. Once again our good
friends and neighbors made
it possible for all countains
to express pride in being a
resident of the Garden Spot.
Lancaster County Exhibit-
ors had 734 winners, 34
more blue awards than in
1965; we have every right to
be proud of our people. The
Exhibitors from our county
are doing much to make it
possible for all of us to en-
joy successful living. Congra-
tulations to all the partici-
pants and best wishes for ev-
en more success in the future

The Annual Governor's
Conference On Traffic Safety
was recently held in Harris-
burg. Once again Lancaster
County was recognized for
some outstanding accomplish-
ments. Five recipients from
our county received the Gov-
ernor’s Award “for Outstand-
ing Contribution to Traffic
Safety’. Those honored were:
William Z. Getz, Inc.; Lampe-

The State of the Common-
wealth Message was deliver-
ed by Governor William W.
Scranton before a joint ses-
*
ly in the House of Represei-
tation on Monday, January
24, 1966. This was the great-
est message of progress and
hope ever delivered in the
history of Pennsylvania.
Never before was it pos-
sible for any Governor to re-
port such progress toward
full employment, a booming
economy, education on its
way to becoming the best in
the Nation, protection for
our Natural resources, a high-
way program which will help
all 67 counties, and the great
spirit of confidence and dedi-
cation of Pennsylvanians.
Speeches of the nature giv-
en by our Governor are not
possible without leadership
and cooperation. Whether or
not we all agree with the
Governor in everything he
does, one fact remains, hc
proved to be the much need-
ed leader we needed for our
state. All of us could not ag-
| ree that the House and Sen-
ate did everything possible
to point the success yardstick
in the proper direction, but
we must admit that most of

lantly assumed responsibility
